Breakfast and Lunch Program
Notre Dame Academy is proud to offer unique home-cooked meals for our students. Our kitchen is fully staffed onsite and students overwhelmingly enjoy the menu items offered. NDA offers hot meals for both breakfast and lunch through the MN Free School Meals Program. This program is a permanent program for schools that participate in the National School Lunch Program and the School Breakfast Program so that students can have one breakfast and one lunch at no cost.
With this program, we still ask families to complete the free and reduced lunch application to potentially receive additional services for their students. NDA does receive some funding and services based on these applications. Further information on the lunch program is available in our handbook or you may contact the school office. Forms for the free and reduced lunch application can be found just above this section of the parent resource page. The school menus can be accessed via the top navigation bar.
While lunch and breakfast are free, extra entrees or milk are available for a fee. Students will be charged $2.85 for an extra entree and $.70 for milk.
“I am a volunteer from the IHM parish and have volunteered at NDA since its opening. Nowhere have I witnessed and felt a part of a more caring, loving, Christian family. I witness children being given such wonderful opportunities to learn and experience areas for not only academic and leadership growth but more importantly, their spiritual growth.”
